Crunchy carrots contain organic carrot, organic maltodextrin and lecithin.Hearty Sweet Potatoes contain organic sweet potatoes, organic maltodextrin, organic corn starch, sunflower lecithin.
Plump peas and crunchy apples contain 100% peas and 100% apples.
The peas and the apples were the first products I tried from this company. The baby loved them and I loved the ingredients. I thought I would try the other products so I ordered the carrots and sweet potatoes. To my surprise and disappoinment, when they arrived, I saw that they contained ingredients that I was not pleased with. I wrote Nurturme and asked why they put maltodextrin in their products unnecessarily and they responded, The organic maltodexrin in our products is derived form organic corn. Maltodextrins are manufactured form starch and are extensively used as an emulsifier in foods.
They are included in our foods because they are binding agents that are used when our foods are dried. Like starch, most maltodextrins are easily digested and used for energy in the body." So, while the carrots and sweet potatoes are probably fine, they did not contain ingredients that I wanted to feed my baby. The biggest issue being that this information was not included in the product description on amazon.
